The only dumb question is the question not asked.

All of the carpet pythons are arboreal. I guess I should say, semi-arboreal. The all can get up in the trees and move around but they are not arboreal in the GTP sense.

So if I were to purchase one then what type of cage should it live in? Arboreal or non?

Beautiful snake! How's the temperment on those guys?

If you give them branches and the space to climb, they will. Some will continue to climb when they are adults and others will prefer to stay closer to the ground. I give all of my carpets room to climb and perch and it's nice to see them hanging out and visible.

here's a picture of one of my carpet tanks. It is approximately 48"x20"x22"

That is one of the nicest looking carpets I've seen and not surprised that she came from your adults, Michael.

Yours is one of the collections I would love to have more animals from...now to just find the space! I keep thinking about an IJ male....

She is for sure one of my all time favs! Can't wait to see what she will give you when you breed her...hopefully more like her!!! Seeing her makes my day :carrot:
